I know I say this a lot...but time seems to be flying by! I can't believe that it is almost September...which means fall is just around the corner! There are so many things that we had wanted to do before summer ended. One of our favorite things to do is to have a picnic! We went back up to Georgetown..they have an awesome park and playground for the kids and had a fantastic day! The weather was great...a little warm but we all hung in there and had some ice cream to cool off! The kids continue to bring us entertainment on a daily basis. Nico has decided that Lucia can stay...he was ready to leave her at a store! He has such an amazing sense of humor...he might be on the stand up circut at some point. One night my mom was reading this prayer card we found in my Nana's stuff and it was a prayer about growing older and it was really funny. She would read from the card and then we would all laugh. Well, Nico had a deck of cards he was playing with and when she was done reading....he picked up a card and pretended to read it..pausing and then laughing and slapping his had on his knee! Hilarious!
Lucia is a bundle of smiles. She is such a happy baby and loves to watch Nico run around her. It is such an important reminder to me everyday that babies are so different from each other. It is so important to treat them as individuals and encourage their personalities. Lucia doesn't cry much and is a great little sleeper. I read a book and it has really helped me understand babies patterns..eating, activities and sleeping. So far it's working like a charm....I think about if i would have tried to do things with Nico...since he was not a sleeper but remind myself that he has always been on his own pattern and had his own agenda. We love the experience of having two babies that are truly different and watching them both grow!
Here are some pics from some of our summer days:
It is such a joy to read about our sweet grandchildren and to relive the delightful times we have shared. You are also creating beautiful and joyful memories for Nico and Lucia. God has truly blessed us and we thank you for sharing your precious children with us. Thank you for allowing us to share our love with you and for letting us be a part of your lives. Love, Nana & Papa
